In March 1993, photographer Kevin Carter made a trip to southern Sudan, where he took now iconic photo of a vulture preying upon an emaciated Sudanese toddler near the village of Ayod. Carter said he waited about 20 minutes, hoping that the vulture would spread its wings. It didn’t. Carter snapped the haunting photograph and chased the vulture away.

Carter eventually won a Prize for this photo, but he couldn’t enjoy it. “I’m really, really sorry I didn’t pick the child up,” he confided in a friend. Consumed with the violence he’d witnessed, and haunted by the questions as to the little girl’s fate, he committed suicide three months later.

Avram,
If you search history you will find that
Lawrence of Arabia promised the holy land to the Arabs.

Go & check it out & you'll see I'm right.

God promised the holy land to the Jews bobby.

Lawrence of Arabia was a British army person. I will prefer God's view.

God doesn't exist but Lawrence of Arabia & the British empire did.

Facebook employees moved into this new campus in Menlo Park, Calif., in December 2011... One of the main roads leading to the new Facebook campus is called Hacker Way.

Hacker Square is the cultural center, where employees congregate for movies and parties. The red bridges are painted the same color as the Golden Gate Bridge in a nod to the campus’s proximity to San Francisco.

Mini kitchens stocked with free snacks and drinks are found throughout the Facebook campus.

Mini bars also abound...Notice how their isn't a bottle that isn't open ...exept for the bottle at the very front which looks like a sports/fruit drink.

Throughout the offices, there are many open meeting and lounging spaces
